It can't make normal calls or texts on Three, SMARTY or iD Mobile, because Three has never had a 2G network; only 999 calls can roam onto another network (Ofcom). As a 2G-only phone it gets no mobile data and no Emergency Alerts (GOV.UK). 2G is also closing: EE begins closing 2G from May 2029, O2 from summer 2029 and Vodafone in spring 2030, under the government's 2G Switch-off Charter (sources: EE, Virgin Media O2, VodafoneThree and GOV.UK, checked 5 Oct 2026).
